Old, tired tech worker, COVID safe, musician, parent, and seeker of better mastodon instances. A proletariat living in the latest stages of the worst economic system we've seen on this planet. Fun times! #generalaction is my only remaining vote, and we live in a general strike condition.

Just so we are clear -- fascists are USING TAXPAYER MONEY to pay wind, hydroelectric, solar companies to NOT produce, provision, or maintain existing renewable energy projects so the dirty energy sector can make money again.

Fascists, who have committed a coup against the US government, openly violating the constitution and bill of rights, etc, are trying to STOP renewable energy production.

#GENERALACTION NOW!
This is a crime, and every one of them should be imprisoned for this- or worse.

Incredible news, y’all! We need this mass produced and replacing all life saving medical plastics ASAP: https://worldbiomarketinsights.com/japanese-researchers-develop-strong-biodegradable-plastic-from-plant-cellulose/

This innovative plastic is […]

@joeress nope. Full stop. No device or platform I use will ever force me into fascist surveillance capitalism, and Ill stop using any device or platform if there is no way to break it, work around it, disable it. Ive already done this with that thing people call "the smartphone". No more smartphones in our home, and there will not be for the foreseeable future.

The sell-out of the DACA young adults is one of the worst betrayals by government in this new century. #Dreamers #Immigration https://www.ms.now/news/ice-detains-daca-recipient-premature-baby
‘Americans at heart’: ICE detains DACA recipient on way to visit premature baby in NICU

Juan Chavez Velasco’s case reflects a growing pattern: The Trump administration is targeting Dreamers who once believed DACA shielded them — and letting their renewals expire unanswered.

@ai6yr haha! My wife tries this sort of thing with me all the time, but so far - nope. We tried Petes over the years, and I admit Petes is *probably* a step up from starbucks and some other crap, but still...

Its weird... I get an inner ear thing sometimes when I drink a stiff cup of coffee, but I can drink 230mg caffeine in a 5hour energy and I feel none of it. My ear starts making weird sounds. For many years now.

@zackwhittaker @redteamwrangler bummer. Hopefully its still accessible in some way. You dont think paywalls for *most* modern online journalism makes sense, right? I mean as a tech journo you probably have a stake in it... sooo... yeah. No, paywalls arent legitimate, ESPECIALLY in terms of how media generates revenue from other sources.

@Gizmodo @science-Gizmodo america certainly thinks a LOT about what the USSR did, including maintaining an "anti communist force" close to 40 years after communism ended there, making 50 years worth of Hollywood propaganda about it, committing war crimes against Cuba for 60 straight years despite THE REST OF THE UN voting to stop doing that, etc etc.

Its like capitalism is telling on itself there.

Denver is on the verge of replacing Flock with Axon, who basically does the same thing. Pack the house at city council tonight! 1437 Bannock Street, 5:00.
